You may not be the strongest wrestler, or be the most technical but never let anyone out work you. I put together a quick conditioning session guaranteed to increase conditioning for wrestlers in the preseason.

Well, your training is no different.  I’m here to tell you it’s really not that complicated. Every time you turn around there is a new ebook, manual, fitness dvd, training system, etc,. etc, etc.  Hell, any time I want to find out [...]]]> http://jamiesulc.com/1120/complicated-kiss-training-real-results/ I have a quick training update for you today. A few weeks ago I started experimenting with KB complexes. Today, I stepped it up with a double KB complex.  There’s nothing like challenging your manhood on an early, hot, sticky, and nasty morning! I wouldn’t have it any other way. Drop a comment and let [...]]]> http://jamiesulc.com/1115/double-kettlebell-complex-strength-power-athletici/ This week I’m deloading so that means a lot of practice and fun training. I always have fun training but it’s a nice mental break on a deload week when you can just walk in the door and decide what you feel like doing!  During the course of a normal training cycle, I plan everything.  [...]]]> http://jamiesulc.com/1110/kettlebell-practice-deload-training/ What do you do to stay lean and mean?

When are you strong enough? I don’t think I’ll ever be strong enough.  At least I’ll never think I’m strong enough no matter how much I progress.  I guess that’s what will keep me hungry [...]]]> http://jamiesulc.com/1094/rope-climbs-upper-body-strength/ My all time favorite lifts are the squat, deadlift, pullup, and pushup.  You know, the basics.  I’m all about the K.I.S.S. principle when training.  There’s really no need to complicate things.  I think with all the fancy equipment and hundreds of TV training gurus out there today, people tend to over think their training.  It’s [...]]]> http://jamiesulc.com/1088/snatches-ring-dips-rope-climbs/ Today I have a quick conditioning update straight from the Real World Strength gym.  Here there are no treadmills, ellipticals or recumbent bikes. Here at Real World Strength and Conditioning we use jump ropes, bodyweight, sprinting, jumping, sleds, ropes, sandbags, sledgehammers, among others to stay lean and mean.
